I gave this stall three tries before writing a review, and spoiler alert: they failed every single time.
The juice always seems diluted, and I strongly believe they don’t wash (or at least rinse) the blender before preparing another cup. I have literally tasted hints of vegetables in my watermelon juice two out of three times. The final straw was a cup of orange juice that came out super sour and, again, tasted like it had celery in it.
Also, this is the wrong place to patronize if you're looking for service. It's practically nonexistent. Everyone working there seems to be super miserable and takes it out on their customers. I've never visited a more unpleasant fruit juice stall, or any stall for that matter.
Super diluted avocado milkshake. It doesn't taste like milk or avocado, and there's no taste of gula or sugar. It tasted like diluted vegetable juice. The worst avocado shake ever.
"I ordered a juice that consisted of 3 fruits. These 3 fruits were part of a 4-fruit selection, so the staff suggested I get that instead. I expected the staff would replace the portion of the 4th fruit, which I didn't order, with more of one of the fruits I *had* ordered, since I paid for 4 portions. In the end, I was charged for 4 portions of fruit but only received 3, which was evident in the juice level in the cup. Very disappointed!"
This is the first time I'm giving a one-star review after so many years. I always buy from the Paya Lebar outlet; the service is good, and the juice is nice. I recently bought 10 cups of juice and tried to redeem them at the Tampines Hub outlet. The auntie at the counter was super rude and gave me a weird look when I wanted to redeem my drink. After that, she told me they could only deduct $3.
My daughter is a student at OTH's The Ballet School with Teacher Jaena. Teacher Jaena is always very well-prepared for every lesson. My daughter started ballet at 3 years old with her, and it has been 8 years now. We can see that she is very loving and patient towards the little ones, and strict and firm with the older ones. With her guidance throughout the years, my daughter has been doing well in her RAD exams and has always been looking forward to every lesson.
The admin is very informative and accommodating. The school has good programs for the kids. It's just a pity that it doesn't run elite classes at this outlet.
"The Ballet School" has been an integral part of my daughters' lives since they were little. From the very beginning, the teachers have created a warm and welcoming environment that has made ballet an absolute joy for my girls.
From the start, the teacher for the younger classes has been amazing. She is incredibly friendly and patient, making every lesson fun and engaging for the children. She knows how to relate to them, making the learning process enjoyable and relatable while helping them develop essential ballet skills and improve their motor skills.
As my daughters progressed, the teachers focused on teaching them proper techniques. While they can be firm at times, it's clear that their firmness stems from a place of genuine care and concern for the kids. Witnessing the teachers' joy when my children finally master a challenging exercise after struggling for some time is truly heartwarming. They provide constant feedback and encouragement, ensuring that my kids always feel supported and motivated.
The school also organizes performance opportunities, which have been instrumental in building my children's confidence. Seeing them step on stage and express themselves through dance has been a remarkable experience.
Thanks to the incredible effort of all the teachers, both my daughters have developed a deep love for ballet. It's been amazing to witness their growth and passion for this art form over time.
The administrative support at "The Ballet School" is truly phenomenal. The staff members are friendly and always ready to address any concerns we may have. They go above and beyond to resolve scheduling conflicts and administrative issues, ensuring a smooth experience for everyone. What has impressed me the most is that they know each child by name, creating a personal and caring atmosphere.
Thank you for providing my children with such a wonderful experience. They have not only learned ballet but also gained confidence, discipline, and a love for the arts.
"One of the best ballet schools in the east, with a spacious dance studio and clean equipment to use. Teacher Jaena is a passionate and supportive teacher who tries her best to interact with her students and get to know more about their personal lives. Ms. Iris is a friendly admin staff member who takes the initiative to help students and parents in every way possible. Definitely one of the top choices for a ballet school! 😻😻"
My daughter has been dancing at The Ballet School for close to 5 years, since she was 4 years old. What we liked about the ballet school was its focus on technical training, even at that young age. The RAD program is very structured, and they prepare the girls sufficiently so they are able to manage and perform well during the exam.
In addition to RAD, they also have an Elite Program for dancers who show greater potential, pushing them to higher levels of excellence.
Every year, the ballet school also has performance opportunities for its RAD and Elite students. These opportunities give the girls a chance to showcase what they have learned in class.
In addition, for girls with greater dance ambitions, the school also has competition groups at various ages, grooming girls to compete and represent the ballet school at national and international dance competitions.
The teachers are very kind and nurturing, and the receptionist is also very helpful in arranging schedules and keeping the parents informed of any changes or courses. I highly recommend the ballet school for any child keen to explore ballet as a passion.
My daughter has been attending The Ballet School (TBS) since she was 3 years old, starting from the childcare center. After that, we continued her ballet journey at Our Tampines Hub (OTH). She has also been in the elite program at TBS @ OTH.
I must say the teachers at TBS are very dedicated and passionate about teaching the girls, and the girls are progressing well. Girls who are not in the competition/elite team also get the chance to have public performances. The admin team is also very prompt in responding to any queries. I would strongly recommend parents send their daughters to TBS.
The only setback is that at OTH, there is a lack of studio space, resulting in the competition team having to travel to other TBS branches across Singapore for their practices.
My daughter (now in Grade 5) has been with The Ballet School @ OTH since preschool (7 years ago) and still looks forward to each ballet lesson! The lessons have helped to build her self-confidence, agility, and endurance, not only in ballet but also in other physical sports. The instructors are dedicated and have been a source of motivation for students to reach their full potential. The administrative staff, such as Ms. Iris, is friendly and responsive to parents’ requests and queries. I hope they can open more outlets in the near future, perhaps in central, northeast, or prime areas like shopping malls!
